Riley Cooper apologized for his racial slur, but he shouldn't have expected all of his Philadelphia Eagles teammates to move on as if it was business as usual in training camp. Running back LeSean McCoy, for one, came out strongly Thursday in his disapproval of Cooper.

While some other Eagles, such as quarterback Michael Vick, have been more guarded about whether Cooper's words reflect his true nature, the consensus among teammates is that it will take time for the emotional wounds to heal. Vick, McCoy and wide receiver Jason Avant are among the team's offensive leaders, and all three are African-American players.

Eagles coach Chip Kelly, who attended the Kenny Chesney concert at which Cooper's use of the n-word was caught on camera, also shared his thoughts on Thursday.

"I was appalled by it ... actually shocked by it," Kelly said. "I've been here since April, and that's not the Riley Cooper I know."

Kelly said the team didn't consider releasing Cooper, and that he doesn't see the punishment for Cooper going "beyond" the team-imposed fine. (He also will undergo sensitivity training.) Kelly pointed out, however, there is a real worry that the situation with Cooper may turn into a divisive factor in the locker room. Kelly says teammates interacting with Cooper will be an important part of the healing process.
